We have a new brother!  His name is Nico
Maximillio and we adopted him from the
Animal Adoption and Rescue Foundation
(AARF), when he was 9 weeks old on Feb 14.
He's a German Shepherd like us but with a lot
of Great Pyrenees in him too.

Nash and I were running a breakneck speed
in a field today.  I got a couple scratches -
Nash got a big gash on this left back thigh.  
Mom took him in for surgery.  He's a bit
groggy from the anesthesia but doing really
good.

I just got out of the Vet ER. Mom brought me
to the clinic on Sat morning, and by that night
I was at the ER. Sun morning I had surgery;
they removed 4 ft of my small intestine due to
a jagged bone that got lodged in there.

Today I got a big brother - and a friend.  His
name is Nash Chaunce and was adopted just
like me.  He's a German Shepherd, 3 years
old, about 95 lbs.

I don't remember too much of my past.  I grew
up at the Dalhart, TX Animal Rescue Center.  I
lived there with my two brothers - and over
500 other dogs looking for a permanent
home.  Today, I was adopted.  I
am 10 months old.
